Deep in the Living

Chapter 411 Immortality
Five years ago, on a rainy night.

Due to the influence of the Corner, horror literature has become a compulsory course for all citizens. All immigrants or native residents who come to this country must have a deep understanding of horror literature.

Therefore, various bookstores, video stores, and game stores are scattered all over the streets.

Even in places like resettlement communities, there are very formal shops.

In a nostalgic-themed video store specializing in CDs from the 1980s and 1990s, the unshaven owner, wearing a baseball cap, denim overalls, and was about to close the store early.

boom!
Thunder flashed.

The boss looked back and saw a man in a raincoat standing in the heavy rain not far behind him.
Under the effect of lightning, his body appeared huge and his face could not be seen clearly, which scared the boss who had watched countless movies.

Looking closely, this is not a tall figure at all, but only about 1.7 meters tall.

Judging from the sneakers exposed outside, she seems to be an underage student.

"Rodi, what are you doing here so late? I'm about to close the shop."

The young man trotted to the rain shelter in front of the store, lifted his hood, and revealed a face that was obviously childish but deep and dull.

"I'm here to buy some CDs. My scholarship has been paid out. Can I just buy the CDs I rented from you last time?"

The boss rubbed his beard and said, "No need to buy it. If you haven't finished watching it, I can extend the rental period for you for free. You can return it soon after you finish watching it.

It’s not worth buying them. After all, they are all genuine discs. I bought them at a very high price, which is enough for you to rent hundreds of times. "

"I want to buy it. How much is it?"

"According to the exchange rate of our country, 160."

"I bought all three tickets I rented last time."

Luo Di took out a bundle of slightly moistened paper money.

The boss frowned and finally took only half of it. "You are an old customer, so I will give you a discount. Since you are a student, I will give you half price.

I just want to know, why do you insist on buying it? "

"I like it, and I watch it every night. It's too troublesome to rent it. By the way, boss, can I come into the store and take a look? Ten minutes."

"go Go."

While selecting a murder-themed movie in the store, Rody asked:
"Boss, why don't the killers in these movies ever die? Sometimes they're clearly dead in the previous movie, but come back to life for various reasons in the next one, or they just can't die at all."

"Tsk~ This is not easy. If I die..."

The boss swallowed the words he was about to say. He lived in the same residential complex as Luo Di and knew a little about the incident. It was after that incident that Luo Di started to rent discs frequently, and he specifically rented discs of slasher movies.

"Ahem! According to the settings of early horror literature, murderers all possess an attribute called [immortality]. At that time, there was not much logical theory in shooting such B-level films.

As this series of films progressed, the attribute of "immortality" was tacitly attached to the murderer.

The fans also accepted this and no one asked why he didn't die, but just took it for granted."

“Of course… not dying.

Got it, thank you boss. Boss, do you have any movie merchandise related to the murderer? Like a machete mask or something like that. "

"How much money do you make a month? You can't afford it. Wait until you finish your studies and get a job. Use your scholarship to eat something good. Look at how skinny you are.

By the way, there seems to be a box of milk on my table, which my mother brought this morning. You can have it, it's a gift for buying the CD.

You don’t need to register to rent any discs you want. Just pick one and get out now. I’m waiting to go home and play with my friends.”

"Oh, thank you."

The boss stood at the door, ready to close it at any time.

However, after waiting for five minutes, there was no movement. Looking at the urgent message sent by his companion on the bracelet, he stepped into the store and planned to urge Rody further.

But as soon as he stepped into the store, the scene in front of him made him stunned again.

Luo Di had already chosen the CD, but he went to the counter because of the milk. While looking for milk, he found a machete under the table.

This is the boss's self-defense weapon. After all, in a land affected by corners, this is considered basic operation.

Rody took out the machete and held it in his hand. He didn't know when he put on the hood of his raincoat.
At that moment, the boss seemed to have really seen a murderer that could only be seen in the movies. He was so scared that he took two steps back and almost knocked down the shelf behind him.

When he looked up again, Rody had put the knife back and was sucking on the shriveled milk carton.

"Thank you, boss. I'm going back now."

"okay."

Luo Di held the selected CD in his arms, walked quickly and disappeared into the rainy night.

Looking at the other person's receding back, the boss actually had a bead of cold sweat that didn't come from the rain sliding down his forehead.

……

[Underground garage-the source of the virus]

The blonde girl's body had been torn into pieces and scattered around like garbage.

Jia Wen's right hand was piercing the black-haired woman who was extremely flexible and skilled in physical attacks.

Any physical influence cannot break through the zombie body, and all kinds of kicks and slaps on Jarvan are just like tickling.

His zombie body was specially constructed for the group of people in front of him.

It is enough to be called a "natural enemy".

Give it a firm squeeze.

Snapped!
The squad leader's head exploded, and with a flick of his arm, the headless body escaped from the claws and rolled to the side.

"Only one minute and 21 seconds have passed... It's really too weak. Being so weak yet still able to find this place, it's just that his perception is outstanding, it's boring."

In Jia Wen's eyes,
All the little guys who had been attacking the zombie meat mountain have been killed, and there are still two remaining guys who need to be dealt with.

One is [Yulu] who was on Rody's back and never attacked the Meat Mountain, and therefore failed to collect pheromones.

One is a rat that sneaked into this underground area, a smart rat that tried to reverse and take over the zombie's arm, but decisively gave up.

Although the contact was only for a moment, as long as the other party was in this underground garage, Jia Wen could sense the presence of the mouse.

So he needs to choose which one to deal with first.

Jia Wen had heard about the sisterhood and the executioner among them, so it was right to put this more interesting guy at the end.

Moreover, he himself hates mice, so it is necessary to catch the mice first.

"Open your eyes..."

Gajigaji~
Jia Wen's pure white body had eye slits all over his body, and even on his fingers, toes and even on the surface of his eyeballs there were extra eyeballs that opened one after another.

More than a hundred eyes observed the entire underground area at the same time, and soon locked onto the hidden red.

The latter seemed to know that he had been exposed, so he stopped pretending and floated out on his own initiative.

A red balloon,

But as it floated out, it continued to inflate and expand, several times its original size...pop!

explosion,

Hundreds of smiling face balloons floated out and hovered in different locations in the underground garage.

Jia Wen smiled as he watched the other party display his methods. His attention was almost entirely on his eyes, but he still heard a discordant sound in his ears.

click!
It's not the sound of the balloon.
Nor is it the voice of the dead,

It's the sound of bones moving and the sound of the spine connecting.

Although there was a threat from the red balloon, he still looked at the pit on the side wall.
His body was cut into five pieces, and Rody, whose whole body was shattered by a kick, was lying in the middle.

The sound of bones came from inside.

"Oh... not dead?"
